Technical excellence and bold aesthetic sensitivity drive the new collaboration between lifestyle brands Moose Knuckles and LUAR. This collaboration will span multiple seasons and made its debut on the runway during the AW24 LUAR show at New York Fashion Week, showcasing Deceptionista. The partnership stems from the longstanding relationship between Moose Knuckles’ Global Artistic Director, Carlos Nazario, and LUAR’s Founder and Designer, Raul Lopez.
«I deeply respect Raul’s vision, and it has been a pleasure to see what he has built with LUAR,» says Carlos Nazario. «Having grown up together in this industry, collaborating with him was a natural choice. The beauty of this collaboration comes to life through our shared experiences, and I am excited to see the communities of Moose Knuckles and LUAR come together,» he concludes. LUAR’s philosophy is rooted in the blend of New York City and the Dominican Republic, promoting constant curiosity towards the future through the redefinition of timeless design and the celebration of a free identity. Like Moose Knuckles, the brand attracts a community of forward-thinking creatives who desire garments that express their personality without sacrificing functionality and durability.

The capsule collection draws inspiration from a combination of practical and exciting pieces, prioritizing technical innovation and Moose Knuckles’ mission to create the warmest outerwear in the world, pushing the boundaries of design. The garments are truly unique, featuring elements that redefine the concept of wearability. Both teams were heavily involved in the design process, drawing from vintage pieces and inspirations, LUAR’s unique and irreverent silhouettes, and Moose Knuckles’ extensive archive of materials, techniques, and expertise. The first release of the collaboration was presented during NYFW and will be available starting FW24. The partnership with LUAR continues Moose Knuckles’ tradition of collaborating with cutting-edge designers to innovate and inspire the fashion landscape.
